Sat, 03 Mar 2012 16:27:00 +0000http://www.droid-life.com/?p=62987#comment-1470039I am hopeful that there will be no charges to the end user. I thought ISIS’s revenue model draws revenue from the banks offering services similar to the way NFC cards work today through the merchant fees. However, since the carriers precluded Google Wallet from their phones by omitting a secure element we will be probably have to tie ourselves to a carrier supplied SIM or SDCard with a secure element. The carriers are going to try to chain you onto their service as a way of keeping you there. If they choose a SIM option, consider the PITA it would be to change carriers AND all your NFC info. All this no doubt will come at an additional charge to us somewhere either up front on our cellular bills or on the backend as merchant fees passed along in the cost of goods.

And yes, it’s sad that we have to wait for the sheep to give Android users the critical mass for merchants and additional banks to get on board. Apple has the customer base, a monolithic mobile platform and could quickly transform iTunes into a hybrid store/transaction processor. Think of all those sheep asking merchants… “Do you accept iPhone?”

Tue, 28 Feb 2012 16:02:00 +0000http://www.droid-life.com/?p=62987#comment-1455159Not true. There already is a fee that the merchant pays when you use a credit card. Google and ISIS will participate with that fee and the consumer pays nothing.

Back when the D4 release was Dec 9, 2011 I thought I’d wait for the D5 with built in NFC and a non-pentile screen.
After the D4’s mysterious release date delay, followed by delay, followed by more delay, followed by Motorola’s PR statement about slowing down all smartphone releases I decided not to wait for a D5 that would likely not be released until all its component advances were obsolete.

However, it also gives the carriers the right to put a huge and outrageous price on the feature, just like mobile hot spot. If Google supported more cards, and wasn’t blocked by carriers, it would dominate the NFC payment business. If you ask me, this is just another feature that I don’t have enabled on my phone because it cost way to much.
